Episode 1

Thank you. - Enjoy your meal.

Thank you.

Happy birthday to you

Congratulations on your new job. - Happy birthday to you

They're beautiful.

Happy birthday, dear Soo Ah. - Eat all you want.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday. - Blow out the candles.

Here's your birthday present, Soo Ah.

Darn it.

Someone said that...

if you see the world upside-down, everything looks different.

The sky becomes a lake,

and mountains become shadows reflected in that lake.

My twisted mess of a life.

Is this how it ends?

I must flip everything around and see it differently.

That way, I can see what the truth is.

Where shall I begin my story?

Yes. Let's start from that day.

The first time I saw the world upside-down.

The last time he threw his classmate out the window, you...

You went to see him, apologized,

and compensated them, so we smoothed it over.

This time, a student and a teacher are both unconscious.

Do Be Man

Yes. Anyway, we...

Hey! Where do you think you're going?

I was expelled from the third school I was transferred to.

For the exact same reason.

I failed to adapt and broke school rules.

They said I harmed the studious atmosphere.

What's important is that...

there were no more schools to take me in.

Do Be Man.

You punk.

What is the matter with you?

Be Man. You got expelled on purpose.

Because high-school drop-outs don't get drafted.

Why don't you ask to be erased from the family registry?

That gets you out of the army too.

You're the only relative I have left, Auntie.

What are you going to do?

Do you have a plan?

I was born with less than nothing.

The only way I can reach the top of the pyramid.

Law and One Job Application, Do Be Man

Mr. Do Be Man? - Yes?

You're the first high-school drop-out to apply to our law firm.

Doesn't that mean you can't even serve in the army?

I want to abolish discrimination including that regarding education.

That's why I applied to Law and One.

I have a question.

Don't people want to interview you...

about passing the bar as a high-school drop-out?

When I heard a guy with a middle-school education had passed,

I was fascinated.

What can you do with that level of education?

Even store clerks have a college degree these days.

Would you trust a lawyer who only finished middle school?

That's when I realized not finishing high school was an obstacle...

passing the bar couldn't overcome.

I'd heard of people agreeing to interview women for fun...

based on the photos on their resumes.

That just happened to me.

You called me for an interview for fun, knowing my circumstances?

My gosh.

Mom, save me!

Did you get enough of me now?

I saw all of your faces...

and I will remember them.

List of law firms

The day I messed up my interview at the tenth law firm,

I met the person who would change my life.

In return for accepting the victim's case,

he accepted bribes and illegal forms of entertainment.

An investigation was launched,

and many of the suspicions were proven to be true.

My Aunt

Hi, my dear aunt.

Your boisterous tone suggests you didn't get the job.

Oh, please. They're all begging me to come work for them,

but the terms aren't satisfying.

If it's a job I wanted, I would've gotten it already.

Be home early.

We'll have doenjang jjigae and soju for dinner.

Yes, Detective Do Soo Kyung,

Darn it.

Stir-fried kimchi

How can you eat ramyeon without kimchi?

That reaction suggests you know who I am.

You're Yong Moon Gu, the managing partner at Law and One.

That's right, and let me say that I've been looking into you.

Sorry? But the interview is over.

Name, Do Be Man.

Both parents were military personnel,

but they passed away in a car accident.

Your aunt took you in at the age of ten.

You've been on ten job interviews including the one today,

but none were fruitful.

Studying for the bar sunk you into a pile of debt,

and your credit will soon hit rock bottom.

You... Have you been stalking me?

What is the meaning of this?

Know that you passed my job interview.

Drink up.

Have you ever heard of an offer one can't refuse?

It's a famous line from the movie "The Godfather".

That's what I'm offering you.

About 1.5 million dollars went into this room.

Money can solve many problems,

but I'm more interested in things money can't buy.

Cut to the chase, will you?

Here.

Serve a stint in the military.

As a military prosecutor. What do you say?

I enjoyed you showing off your money.

But I didn't go to high school which gives me an exemption.

Work little and earn loads, sir.

You probably heard about the arrested military prosecutor.

Do you know...

how much he earned while working with me?

You'll get a ten percent commission...

and be given five times the salary of those snobby lawyers...

who looked down on you during the job interview.

Isn't it a deal that can change your life?

I guess it is.

It could change my life completely.

Those studying law may be smart upstairs,

but they're known to lack empathy which seems to be true.

Didn't you learn anything while digging into my background?

Salute! - Goodness.

Mom. - Yes?

I'll also join the army when I grow up.

Really? Sounds like a good idea.

Our son will be one of the brightest soldiers.

Chairman

Dad, the truck!

Be Man...

Be Man... - Mom?

Be Man...

I'm... I'm sorry.

Mom? Open your eyes.

Please open your eyes.

Mom!

My parents passed away in their military uniforms...

in front of my eyes.

Me? The thought of the military gets my blood boiling,

but you want me to enlist voluntarily?

Not even 50 times the salary could get me to enlist.

You seem like someone who can take a beating,

but the heart must be quite fragile.

Do you know why the military is a gold mine?

Because to those with power in this country,

the military is a ticking time bomb.

They don't want their sons to enlist,

but not going would raise eyebrows.

My job is to defuse the bombs that can go off at any time.

To put it simply,

the military is the pressure point of the rich and powerful.

No deity can ever fatten your wallet.

Since you can do that for me,

I'm supposed to answer to you?

You made it this far on your own,

but who do you have in your corner?

You have never had connections before.

What do you say to me being that man for you?

Serve just five years in the military,

and I will offer you a job as a partner at Law and One.

However,

the deal only stands if you satisfy me.

I'm sure many at your firm...

would gladly jump at a chance like that.

Is it too cruel to say that your broken heart...

is what I need?

Because that is something money can't buy.

You were out late today.

Auntie, I got a job.

As if.

Is it true?

Is it for real? Hold on a second.

Which law firm? Tell me.

Come on. Tell me which one.

The military.

Unbelievable. I knew you were pulling my leg.
